A few students put their creativity to action yesterday by making “Story Quilts” about various fables. They drew pictures to share the moral and described the beginning, middle, and end! What a fun way to analyze stories and to share the lessons learned!#LOVEBGSTEM @BGESTEM

While collaborating to solve math equations, this student used “silent signals” from Number Talk to agree with her partner’s strategy. Awesome teamwork to solve more challenging problems!! @BGESTEM #LOVEBGSTEM

Students had a great time creating their classroom giant. They collaborated in small groups to create each piece of him based on specific measurements. They ended the day by nominating and voting on his name…”Mr. Squirrely”!

This week students used the Problem Solving Process to design and build their own community parks. They discovered more ideas after listening to others.
